Chose the hotel for the price and okay reviews. Booked to stay at the Ibis Portland, but when my friend checked our booking the night before our stay, we'd been booked into a double room when we'd requested a twin.

I booked a twin room at the IBIS in Charles Street/ Princess Street in Manchester for 24/5/08. I found the hotel no problem and car parking was easy at the Euro carparks down the road from the Hotel.

Beware on Friday and Saturday nights...we had to step over dozens of drunk students and piles of vomit to get from the Euro Car Park to the hotel. Area looked run down.
